What Does Anonymous Have on Bank of America?
A member of the activist collective Anonymous is claiming to be have emails and documents which prove "fraud" was committed by Bank of America employees, and the group says it'll release them on Monday. The member, who goes by the Twitter handle OperationLeakS, has already posted an internal email from the formerly Bank of America-owned Balboa Insurance Company.

The website is down. Here are the first details:
As you can see above, a deliberate effort to remove images of scanned original documents “appears” to have been undertaken by Bank of America/Balboa employees. The process is quite simple. Whenever you use a scanner for a document in a large corporation, a document identification number (aka DTN-Document Tracking Nubmer) is assigned to that original piece of paper. This process replaced the old microfilm/microfiche system (thankfully) and allowed corporations to maintain large databases on computers using optical scanners for originals and stuffing the original documentation into boxes in a warehouse for safe keeping. If a dispute or need for the original arose, they would have access to it via the reference number by cross referencing it to the loan number assigned to the DTN in this case. By removing the cross reference to the loan identification number, Balboa/BoA could simply imply that the original documentation did not exist in “their” system any longer so the documents to be audited or in question were unavailable to regulators and/or the courts if needed.
